You cleansed my heart with your kindness and love,
Now your song is with me every night.
I sing a prayer for the God of my life,
How I’ve changed since the day you cleansed my heart.
Verse 1: Used to use my eyes for gazing and wondering
At all the wealth this world could give.
Used my ears to hear the promise of riches
And how I needed more to live.
Verse 2: Used to use my voice for calling, demanding
Whatever I could claim as mine.
Used my hands to grasp at treasures that perish;
Never had my share till you made me aware:
Lord, only your love has any reason or rhyme;
Your gift lasts for all time.
Repeat chorus.
Verse 3: Used to use my heart for longing and craving
The things that must get left behind.
Used my head to plan a future of fortune;
Never had my fill till you showed me your will.
Lord, only your love has any reason or rhyme;
Your gift lasts for all time.
Repeat chorus.
